Seek The Light

I wonder if this is what enlightenment feels like…

My Own Private Idaho

Well, my last ride…I’m hitchhiking for those that are not aware…dropped me off in Van Horn, TX at about 10:00pm last night. I was afraid that I would have to spend another night out in the weather, but while walking down the main drag I found a Christian shelter. Stays for individuals are limited to overnight once per week, but I was planning on hitting the road the next day anyway.

It was a small place, but they let me in the door after-hours, and even gave me a private room. I was allowed to shower in the morning, and there was fresh coffee and Life cereal for breakfast. Pretty nice for someone with only a few loose coins and the drive to start life again.
